Week of September 18th

Here is what we did in library this week!

Grades PK & K

We read the book Friendshape by Amy Krouse Rosenthal.  



In this book, the shapes share what it means to be friends.  After reading the book, we talked about how we can be good friends to others. Harrison students had some great ideas such as helping others, asking others to play, and taking turns!

Grades 1-3

In these grades, we introduced the 2018 Monarch Award lists and read the first book Red: A Crayon's Story.  



Afterwards, students said that the message is to be yourself, no matter what.  Students then shared what they are good at doing.  Here are some of their thoughts:







Grades 4-5

We learned how to search for books in Destiny Discover, our school's library catalog.  Students also learned how to login to Destiny and check out eBooks to read on their devices.  Here is the link to Harrison's Destiny Discover:

Destiny Discover

Username: first initial, last name, graduation year from Harrison

We have almost 90 eBooks and these are perfect for reading on the Chromebooks or on any device at home.

Then, students practiced locating fiction books in our library.

We're looking forward to putting our dots together next week with the school in New York!

Happy Reading!
